Shortcut to create new folder in windows explorer

Why isn't there a shortcut to create new folder in windows explorer. not even a toolbar button as in the open file or save file Dialog Boxes.

If I have to create a folder I have to right click point/click my mouse on the command labeled Create and New Folder from the subsequent popup menus.

Strange...

Do post comment if you know of any hack for this.

Found this article at http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum/win98/1086888824

The software bxNewFolder adds a "New Folder" button to the toolbar of Windows Explorer. It also provides a hotkey (F12) to create a new folder within the Explorer more quickly.

You can download bxNewFolder from http://www.baxbex.com/files/bxnewfolder.exe
